QUANTIFYING ENERGY AND WATER CONSUMPTION PATTERNS IN AN APARTMENT BUILDING: A COMPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS

Abstract

This research paper presents a comprehensive analysis of energy and water consumption patterns in an apartment building. The study aims to quantify and understand the factors influencing energy and water usage, as well as identify potential areas for efficiency improvements. A detailed dataset of energy and water consumption data from individual units within the building was collected and analyzed. Statistical methods and data visualization techniques were employed to examine consumption patterns and identify trends. The findings reveal important insights into the distribution of energy and water consumption across various time periods, unit sizes, and occupancy patterns. Moreover, key factors influencing consumption, such as occupant behavior, appliance usage, and climate conditions, were investigated. The study highlights potential strategies for optimizing energy and water efficiency in apartment buildings and provides a foundation for informed decision-making in sustainable building management.
